Connect three 6-by-8-inch plates to a 2-by-10-inch plate. Make the 8 stud sides at right angles to the 10-stud side of the 2-by-10-inch plate.
Build two parallel walls on the connected 6-by-8-inch bricks with any combination of black bricks. On the third level, replace solid bricks with 2-by-1-inch window bricks.
Connect the two walls with another three 6-by-8-inch plates on top to form the roof of the Black Hawk. Make one of the 6-by-8-inch plates cantilever past the walls. Place a row of downward-sloped pieces on top of the back 6-by-8-inch plate.
Add another 6-by-8-inch plate to the floor of the Black Hawk. Place two seats near the front of the 6-by-8-inch plate to form the pilots' area. Place a control panel in front of the seats.
Form 1-by-4-inch walls around the pilots' area just as you formed the walls in the earlier steps. Make sure there are at least four studs between these walls and the first pair of walls. The opening between the walls is the open-air entryway where things are loaded and unloaded on the Black Hawk.
Place-upward sloped bricks on the front of 6-by-8-inch plate that the pilots' area is in. Place a 2-by-6-inch plate centrally, below, and cantilevered two studs in front of the 6-by-8-inch plate. Connect two upward-sloped bricks on these two visible studs of the 2-by-6-inch plate to form the bottom of the Black Hawk's nose.
Connect-downward sloped bricks on top of the upward-sloped bricks you just placed to complete the front nose of the Black Hawk. Connect a 1-by-4-inch sloped window brick to the center of the downward-sloped bricks to create the window through which the pilots look out. Connect another 6-by-8-inch plate on top of the pilots' area to finish the roof.
Connect the top 6-by-8-inch plate above the pilots' area and just behind it with downward-sloped bricks. Attach one stud columned black bricks to these front downward-sloped bricks all the way to the back downward-sloped bricks on the roof to create the engine space on the Black Hawk. Cover the engine space with three more 6-by-8-inch plates.
Attach a 2-by-16-inch plate to a 4-by-4-inch plate so it covers only a 2-by-2-inch grid of studs. Attach another 2-by-16-inch plate to the opposite end of the 4-by-4-inch plate in the same way. Attach another 2-by-16-inch plate at a right angle to the first two, and attach another 2-by-16-inch plate on the opposite end to this last one you placed. This creates four long propeller blades for the Black Hawk. Snap all the blades firmly together with another 4-by-4-inch plate on top of the bottom 4-by-4-inch plate so the blades are sandwiched between the two.
Attach a 6-by-6-inch plate to a 4-by-10-inch plate. Build up four levels of one-column thick walls on the 6-by-6-inch plate parallel to each other. On the last four columns of studs visible on the 6-by-10-inch plate, attach 1-column-thick walls just like you did to form the earlier walls. Top off the walls with downward-sloped bricks. Attach a 2-by-8-inch brick to the bottom of the 4-by-10-inch brick. Build up two levels of walls. Attach a series of downward-sloped bricks to the far end of this 2-by-8-inch brick to build up the rudder of the Black Hawk. Attach this entire formation to the back of the Black Hawk to form its tail.
Turn the Black Hawk upside-down. Attach a wheel piece to either end of the bottom of the Black Hawk below the pilots' area. Attach another single wheel below the rudder. Turn the Black Hawk right-side up to make sure it stands correctly. Attach the propeller assembly to the roof.
